specified future date. In accordance with the agreement, SCOLD shall pay a
penalty for failure to deliver the said goods. CHIDE determined that the fair
value of the penalty is 40,000. However, because CHIDE expects to comply

SCOLD as the guarantor. If the third party defaults on the loan, CHIDE will be
held liable for the guarantee. CHIDE determined that the fair value of the
guarantee is 120,000. However, both SCOLD and CHIDE believe that the
third party will not default on its loan from the bank.
There is a pending unresolved litigation filed by a third party against SCOLD.
CHIDE determined that the fair value of settling the litigation is 200,000.
However, because the legal counsels of both CHIDE and SCOLD strongly
believe that they will win the case, it was assessed that payment for the
settlement of the litigation is improbable.

Fact pattern
On September 30, 20x1, INNOCUOUS Co. acquired all of the identifiable assets
and assumed all of the liabilities of HARMLESS, Inc. by paying cash of 4,000,000.
On this date, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed have fair
values of 6,400,000 and 3,600,000, respectively.
Case #1: Identifiable asset recognized at provisional amount

14. INNOCUOUS engaged an independent valuer to appraise a building acquired
from HARMLESS. However, the valuation report was not received by the time
INNOCUOUS authorized for issue its financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 20x1. As such, the building was assigned a provisional amount
of 2,800,000. Also, the building was tentatively assigned an estimated useful
life of 10 years from acquisition date. INNOCUOUS uses the straight line
10
method of depreciation and recognized three months depreciation on the
building for 20x1.
On July 1, 20x2, INNOCUOUS finally received the valuation report from the
independent valuer which shows that the fair value of the building as of
September 30, 20x1 is 2,000,000 and remaining useful from that date is 5 years.
How should INNOCUOUS account for the new information obtained?

a. As a retrospective adjustment to the provisional amount of the building
resulting to increase in goodwill by 800,000.
b. As a retrospective adjustment to the provisional amount of the building
resulting to decrease in goodwill by 800,000.
c. As a retrospective restatement to the provisional amount of the building
resulting to increase in goodwill by 800,000. The adjustment is treated as
a correction of a prior period error.
d. The new information obtained is ignored. No adjustment to goodwill is
necessary.
Case #2: Unrecorded identifiable asset acquired

15. On July 1, 20x2, INNOCUOUS obtained new information that HARMLESS has
an unrecorded patent which was not identified on September 30, 20x1. It was
believed that the unrecorded patent had a fair value of 400,000 and a
remaining useful life of 4 years as of September 30, 20x1.

a. As a retrospective adjustment to record the previously unrecorded patent
b. As a retrospective adjustment to record the previously unrecorded patent
c. As a retrospective restatement to record the previously unrecorded
patent resulting to decrease in goodwill by 400,000. The adjustment is

necessary.
Case #3: Information obtained beyond measurement period

16. On November 1, 20x2, the internal auditors of INNOCUOUS discovered an
error on the recorded identifiable assets acquired from HARMLESS on the
business combination. A patent with a fair value of 400,000 and a remaining
useful life of 4 years as of September 30, 20x1 was omitted from the valuation
listing.

a. As a retrospective adjustment to record the previously unrecorded patent
b. As a retrospective adjustment to record the previously unrecorded patent

17. On September 30, 20x1, RIBALD Co. acquired all of the identifiable assets and
assumed all of the liabilities of OFFENSIVE, Inc. by issuing 10,000 shares with
par value of 20 per share.
On this date, RIBALDs shares were assigned a provisional value of 400 per
share. Also, because some identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed
have fair values that were not readily available, a provisional amount of
2,800,000 was assigned to OFFENSIVEs net identifiable assets.
On April 1, 20x2, after RIBALDs 20x1 financial statements were issued, new
information was obtained confirming that the fair value of RIBALDs shares on
September 30, 20x1 is 440 per share and that the fair value of OFFENSIVEs net
identifiable assets as of September 30, 20x1 is 3,600,000.
On July 1, 20x2, two competitors of RIBALD have also merged which led to
RIBALD believing that the merger with OFFENSIVE is not as profitable as
expected. RIBALD now wants to decrease the amount assigned to the
consideration transferred to OFFENSIVE on September 30, 20x1 to 360 per
share and the value of OFFENSIVEs net identifiable assets to 1,600,000.
How should RIBALD account for the new information obtained on July 1, 20x2?
a. As a retrospective adjustment resulting to increase in goodwill by
400,000.
b. As a retrospective adjustment resulting to decrease in goodwill by
400,000.
c. As a retrospective restatement resulting to decrease in goodwill by
400,000. The adjustment is treated as a correction of a prior period
error.

and assumed all of the liabilities of TRANSPARENT, Inc. by paying cash of
In addition to the business combination transaction, the following have also
transcribed during the negotiation period:
a. After the business combination, TRANSPARENT will enter into liquidation
and DIAPHANOUS agreed to reimburse TRANSPARENT for liquidation costs
estimated at 80,000.
b. DIAPHANOUS agreed to reimburse TRANSPARENT for the appraisal fee of a
building included in the identifiable assets acquired. The agreed
reimbursement is 40,000.
c. DIAPHANOUS entered into an agreement to retain the top management of
TRANSPARENT for continuing employment. On acquisition date,
DIAPHANOUS agreed to pay the key employees signing bonuses totaling
400,000.
d. To persuade, Mr. Five-six Numerix, the previous major shareholder of
TRANSPARENT, to sell his major holdings to DIAPHANOUS, DIAPHANOUS
agreed to pay an additional 200,000 directly to Mr. Numerix.
e. Included in the valuation of identifiable assets are inventories with fair value
of 360,000. Ms. Vital Statistix, a former major shareholder of
TRANSPARENT, shall acquire title to the goods.

19. On January 1, 20x1, THRALL Co. acquired all of the identifiable assets and
assumed all of the liabilities of SLAVE, Inc. by paying cash of 4,000,000. On
this date, SLAVEs identifiable assets and liabilities have fair values of
6,400,000 and 3,600,000, respectively.
Prior to business combination, THRALL has sold a license to SLAVE. The licensing
agreement granted SLAVE the right to use THRALLs patented technology for a
period of 5 years. THRALL received 400,000 for the license on grant date and
royalty fees based on SLAVEs sales.
THRALL recognized the license fee as deferred liability and amortized it over 5
years. The carrying amount of the deferred liability on January 1, 20x1 is
240,000.
On the other hand, SLAVE recognized the license fee paid to THRALL as
prepayment and amortized it based on the number of products sold. The carrying
amount of the prepayment on January 1, 20x1 is 200,000.
On January 1, 20x1, THRALL has determined that the fair value of the license
agreement is 480,000. The fair value determined consists of 160,000 at-
market (based on market participants' estimates) and 320,000 off-market
(based on the excess of fair value derived from cash flow estimates over at-
market values; 480,000 160,000) components. The off-market component is
favorable to SLAVE and unfavorable to THRALL, as royalty rates have increased
considerably in comparable markets since the initiation of the contract. The
contract does not have any cancellation clause or any minimum royalty payment
requirements.

20. MULIEBRITY Co. purchases raw materials from FEMINITY, Inc. under a five-
year supply contract at fixed rates. Currently, the fixed rates are higher than
the rates at which MULIEBRITY could purchase similar raw materials from
another supplier. MULIEBRITY is allowed under the supply agreement to
terminate the contract before the end of the five-year term, but only by paying
a 400,000 penalty.
On January 1, 20x1, with three years remaining under the supply contract,
MULIEBRITY Co. acquired all of the identifiable assets and assumed all of the
liabilities of FEMINITY, Inc. by paying cash of 4,000,000. On this date,
FEMINITYs identifiable assets and liabilities have fair values of 6,400,000 and
3,600,000, respectively.
Included in the total fair value of FEMINITY is 640,000 related to the fair value
of the supply contract with MULIEBRITY. The 640,000 represents a 280,000
component that is at market because the pricing is comparable to pricing for
current market transactions for the same or similar items (selling effort,
customer relationships and so on) and a 360,000 component for pricing that is
unfavorable to MULIEBRITY because it exceeds the price of current market
13
transactions for similar items. There are no other assets or liabilities related to
the contract in either MULIEBRITYs or FEMINITYs books as of acquisition date.

VERITY agrees to pay an additional amount equal to 10% of the 20x1 year-end
profit that exceeds 1,600,000. FIRMNESS historically has reported profits of
1,200,000 to 1,600,000 each year.
After assessing the expected level of profits for the year based on forecasts and

in six months. On October 1, 20x1 when the spot rate is 1: INR 1.40, ABC Co.
obtained an option to sell INR 1,120,000 for 783,216 (1 : INR1.43). The option

option, as measured by the spot rate of the currency underlying the option (e.g.,
spot intrinsic value). Changes in the fair value of the option other than intrinsic
value (e.g., time value, impact of counterparty nonperformance risk) are
excluded from the assessment of effectiveness and will be reported in profit or
